Filed in January, stuck on 'Return Received' with no codes or updates - At wits end
Filed in January and still stuck on 'we received your return' status. No verification requests, no codes on transcript, no letters - absolutely nothing. Been calling IRS every 2 weeks hoping for updates but they just say be patient. Never had to wait this long before. Finally contacted my congressman this morning about the hardship. This is getting ridiculous.

Your return is likely stuck in the error resolution department. Without any codes showing up, it means your return hasn't been processed yet. The IRS is severely backlogged with 2023 returns, especially those filed early. Contacting your congressman was a smart move - they can often get answers when we cant.

•Thanks for explaining! Any idea how long congressman inquiries usually take?

•Usually 2-3 weeks for initial response, but could be faster depending on your case and the office's workload.

Hey, I highly recommend using taxr.ai - it's a tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what's going on and when to expect your refund. It only costs $1 and saved me weeks of stress. Check it out: https://taxr.ai

•Yes! It uses AI to analyze every code and entry on your transcript. Gives you a clear timeline and explains any delays

Its frustrating but hang in there! My 2022 return was stuck for 6 months before it finally processed. No rhyme or reason to it tbh

DETAILED ANALYSIS: As someone who deals with IRS delays regularly, here's what's likely happening: 1. Early filers often face longer delays due to fraud prevention 2. No codes usually means manual review is needed 3. System backlogs are worse than ever this year RECOMMENDED STEPS: - Keep checking WMR weekly - Use taxr.ai to analyze your transcript (seriously, best tool out there) - Follow up with congressman every 10 days - Request Taxpayer Advocate if hardship is severe Dont lose hope! The return will process eventually.
